Believe me. I am not judging anyone for how they reacted. I was just a few blocks away. I was right across the street when the first plane hit, and believe it or not, you couldn't tell a plane had hit. It's so far up in the sky. It could have been a traffic copter crash for all we on the street knew right then at 8:46am. I look back and think I should have headed straight back to the ferries and gone back to NJ right then and there. But who knew? I am just saying, lesson learned, get out first, ask questions later. Even so, I stuck around until the first tower fell, the South Tower. Then I fled Manhattan for Brooklyn. Eventually got back to Manhattan and got home to NJ by 8 or 9 pm. It was crazy. I am just saying when your life is in danger, take ownership of it.

I am not at all disputing your comments, mainly I was just adding a comment on some of the types of work pressure people in the tower had to deal with regarding evacuation verus open markets.....if it had been here, I would have had a large incentive to stay in my office for the same reason. Obviously now if the building next door is on fire I will walk out quickly.....
